Defiant of the Road

Published on Thu, 21st May 2026 at 23:37

by William Troup

Defiant of the road, yet fluent of the route, the ghoul has found his home and all he must atone. Remorseful of said times, yet resentful of the lines, the ghoul has set the tone for all he must atone. Spiteful with his words, yet hopeful of their peace, the ghoul has found

Stripped of yellow, our fading star is blue! what hue will replace thee? what of me will remain? What lustral face will come when the demons face their fate? Only the moon will say, whose back has yet to turn!

Streets of Decay

Published on Thu, 21st May 2026 at 02:03

by William Troup

On the streets of decay, an awful face replays; mirrors cannot embrace a heart made of lace, whose words have effaced these weary votes replaced. Holes of despair have opened our souls; what once was grace is time

Heart at Play

Published on Mon, 20th Apr 2026 at 22:02

by William Troup

Heart at play; gambolled away to beseech the day where we shall stay! On petal dreams, we lay in silence; a blissful stream did bring us thirst, yet not the first, as home flailed away with the wind. Heart at play; betroved away to

Fear Me Not

Published on Fri, 17th Apr 2026 at 23:56

by William Troup

Fear me not, as I am me, and you are thee, as heart separates to echos of three; heart, a fickle thing, clings to hope it's yet to grasp; mind, a backseat, begins again and hopes to last; soul, a wayward thing, begets the toll the lover cast. Fear me not,

Slay the Dragon!

Published on Tue, 14th Apr 2026 at 22:02

by William Troup

Slay the dragon, flail thy sword, strike his heart; where doth thou reveal the reins? what of fire that consumes thy mind? dawn still catches the eye of fame! Merriment conveyed, wasting away, in silent days; noon fractured from violent plays! Slay the

Hollow stone, left alone; bones broken by eggshell words. Hollow stone, beating tones; known faces through every bird. Hollow stone, vacant thrown; sewn rivers to hopeful thirds. Hollow stone, left alone ...

Raindrops on Strawberry Seeds

Published on Sat, 11th Apr 2026 at 01:28

by William Troup

Raindrops on strawberry seeds; a mother catches all that she needs, as summers hand prevails with greed; what of winters heart believes? Flailing leaves in summers bind; a mother clutches all that she finds, as foliage creeps into every line; what of spring shall lead

Upon the Wildest Landscapes

Published on Wed, 25th Mar 2026 at 23:53

by William Troup

I. Upon the wildest landscapes, my heart did flail around; fractured skies did split the eyes, as nowhere could I be found. Honeybees play in rivers of roses, and where their hearts rest? nobody knows. Fallen boughs cover the knolls where arrows aim

The Sharpest Knife

Published on Tue, 24th Mar 2026 at 23:35

by William Troup

Death, the sharpest knife; in brilliance, it defines us. Venerated, so many a night, yet leaning from my sight, its silent veil flails around this heart of wasted time. Morn catches a hopeful sun the moon has yet to forgive; what of it? what of me? The

I Am Blue

Published on Tue, 17th Mar 2026 at 00:02

by William Troup

I am blue, as are you. I am red, full of dread. I am yellow, a naughty fellow. I am green, so unseen. I am white, full of fight. I am black, my way back. I am blue, as are you. I am pink, where's the ink? I am grey,
